Grow in new experiences

What does your next adventure entail?  Will you be travelling to some unknown destination....learning a new language....starting a new business.....taking a chance on a new relationship?  What's tugging at you....begging to be expressed.....Why are you allowing fear of the unknown to deprive you of experiences that will awaken your life entirely?

You owe it to yourself to embrace every experience that lends itself to your imagination....shows up in an encounter....and you should feel grateful that you still have time to create memories and perhaps leave a legacy and experience for others.

Don't just marinate in the limited world of your familiarity.  Strike out and embrace new experiences. Stay curious about new things....greater possibilities....the unknown.  Once you've let go of fear in any area....your spirit will refuse to let you rest in the mediocrity of limited familiarity.

Wake Up...Stretch Yourself...New Experiences Await You!

Stretch yourself....

Remain uncomfortable with fitting into the status quo.......Continue to stretch yourself.  Learn a new skill, a new language....Eat at a new restaurant....take a new route to work.  Visit a new city, state, country.....Learn about cultures outside of your own.  Stretch yourself.....remain uncomfortable and Grow in the process.

A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.

Just a little more

Puuuuush.....'just a little more' is all that's needed.
A little more determination, faith and love is what puts you over the top and takes you to another level in your career, life and relationships.

What sets you apart and separates you from average or mediocre is that "extra" step.......'Just a Little More' of whatever everyone else is doing.  The second wind is what the runner is fueled by to take him/her to the finish line and the extra phone call, push-up, waking up earlier, eating one less of whatever you indulge in that's no so good for you, drinking one less cup of coffee, puffing one less cigarette.....the list goes on and on and only you know what one less or 'just a little more' means in your life for you to meet or surpass a goal you've set.

So go ahead: think and reach higher and dream, push, plan and act intentionally and push 'Just a Little More' and go a bit farther.....the extra mile takes you over the top and ahead of the crowd....to the finish line....You Got This!
